Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Halogen substitution controls a conformational switch between a folded closed‐shell and a flat singlet‐diradical conformer in an air‐stable Thiele‐diradical. This conformational switch allows for near‐unity photoluminescence quantum yield with a large Stokes shift, solvatochromism, and a long‐lived excited state.

Twist and Shine: The Impact of Halogen Substitution on Thiele Hydrocarbon's Optical Properties
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Halogenation in Thiele hydrocarbons strongly influences structure and excited‐state dynamics. Depending on substitution, “boat” folded forms show large Stokes shifts and strong solvatochromism, while planar “butterfly” derivatives exhibit near‐unity photoluminescence yields.

Copper‐Catalyzed Three‐Component Selective 1,4‐Amino Oxygenation of 1,3‐Dienes
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Enclosed is a copper‐catalyzed selective 1,4‐amino oxgenation of 1,3‐dienes with the presence of a strong Brønsted acid. This three‐component transformation offers a novel and powerful approach to construct (E)‐1,4‐allylic amino oxygenated motifs by the simultaneous installation of structurally diverse alkylamines and alcohols directly onto 1,3‐dienes.

50 Years of Giese Reaction – a Personal View
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.The Giese‐Reaction celebrates its 50. Birthday, it is a cyclic radical chain reaction centered around C,C‐bond formation in a three component synthesis. This minireview speaks about the birth of the name‐reaction, explains how the complete understanding of its reaction mechanism stimulates new methods in organic synthesis, and why it can proceed in ...
